Deploying multiple VPN-1/FireWall-1 appliances couldn’t be faster. Cubix has optimized, pre-configured and tuned the hardware, then tested and packaged Check Point VPN-1®/FireWall-1® with a hardened Linux OS on a blade appliance. The blades are designed to be hosted in Cubix’s Multi Server Appliance (MSA) systems.
